So how long before I can travel between Earth, the Moon, and Mars in Google Solar System?

I'm actually very interested in planetary missions. I'm wondering when we'll ever have a manned mission to Mars. Perhaps even if. Whether we find liquid water or not, I don't really care. It should still be very interesting.
But we already know there's water on Mars. Metric shit-tonnes of the stuff.
The only problem is that it's at the poles (above 40° lattitude) and usually covered in CO<sub>2</sub> ice and it's hard for landers to touch down that far from the equator without a significant fuel investment.

'cept that's all frozen stuff. There's evidence that there may have once been a
lot of liquid water, well below the poles. I want to know how much, how long it hung around before freezing, and if any type of life had time to evolve before it all disappeared.

We all know what's on Mars.
Naw man that's just a diversion. The
real story on Mars is Cydonia. Oh! Ancient Cydonia, that would dissect us, mutate us and enslave us!

Holy crap!
This has to be one of the most scale-intensive programs I have ever come across. Models from from the Hubble telescope up to the giant stars displayed in proportion. Cool. And perfect pastime for a fan of all things astronomical like myself.
